Therapy Vacation

Dr. D asked me how I feel about him going on vacation. I told him his vacation is my vacation. I wonder if he thought I was going to freak out or something. Uh, no…you go on vacation and I consider it my time to chill too. Sheshh…I may not even shower. I’m kidding. Sooooo, I have a full week off from therapy. No getting up to get me and the dog ready to go. I can sleep with ear plugs in until the 30th of the month because I don’t need to hear the alarm clock go off. It’s so nice sleeping with those in.

So what shall I do with my vacation time? I have plans to deep clean. I know, I know, who on earth uses the words clean and vacation in the same sentence? Me. I’m making a list (but I won’t check it twice) and then I’ll go down the list and get as much done as physically possible. I’m in a flair up at the moment so there isn’t a whole heck of a lot that can be done as far as moving furniture around but I can do my dusting and deep cleaning like that. I call dusting deep cleaning because I’m terrible at making sure that’s done. So anyway, I’m going on the top of three different China cabinets which means standing on a chair. This is the girl that doesn’t like heights at all. Chairs are high but hey, I think for the sake of “deep cleaning” aka dusting I can get on that chair bravely.

I also plan to paint a bit more and to once again re-do the art galleries. I’ve been looking around to see a better way to put the paintings up there. I found a few examples of things that might work so I figured I’d try to categorize the galleries instead of simply put the newest next to the second newest and so on. So, I need to figure out how to best display the art galleries. I also thought instead of just putting up which images are available as postcards I’d take a photo of a group of postcards so that the card itself can be seen. So, that’s going to be my week off from therapy. It feels strange though, knowing I don’t have somewhere to be Monday morning……

  • We all need a therapy vacation at times. Sounds like this one is coming at a perfect time for you. I know it’s been rough for you lately.

  • ENJOY your time off. It sounds like you’ll be productive – don’t forget to have some down time too.

  • Yes, enjoy your time off–but for heaven’s sake, please DO shower. Cappy and The Three Stooges will thank you for it. Barney will thank you for it (maybe.)

  • No, I won’t shower! I refuse AND I’ll leave yesterday on today’s teeth…this is also known as not brushing one’s teeth. No combing my hair, no showering or brushing my teeth….then I’ll let my hair grow into an afro, let my nails grow reallllly long and start driving a cab. :-)

  • Sounds like a good idea. Let your pinky nail grow really long. There’s a thing with middle-eastern guys who do that.

    I managed to jump out of a plane, but I hate getting up on a chair. I think it seems much more likely that I’ll end up smashing myself into the floor than if I jump from 12000 feet… go fig.

    Good luck with your endeavors!

  • I may regret asking but what’s “the thing” about middle-eastern guys with a long pinky nail? I know here it use to have to do with doing coke. Is it a style there?
